Homecoming
With a theme of "Old Traditions -- New Beginnings," the festive occasion included
recognition of 2008 Olympic silver medalist's, UH Cougar divers Anastasia
Pozdniakova and Yulia Pakhalina. They, along with current UH diving coach Jane
Figueiredo, served as honorary captains for the game. Homecoming week started with
the traditions of painting the UC on Sunday by different student organizations on
campus. Throughout the week, different activities went on around campus where
students participated as well as some of the faculty. On Friday, a new era of
University of Houston leadership was ushered in on November 7, 2008 in an
inspiring Investiture Ceremony at Cullen Performance Hall. The formal Investiture
officially endowed UH President and UH System Chancellor, Dr. Renu Khator with the
powers and responsibilities of the two respective offices. The event was attended by
approximately 1,500 members of the University community and a host of
international, federal, state, and local dignitaries. The event marked Dr. Khator's
entrance on to the global academic stage as the University of Houston's 13th President
and the UH System's eighth Chancellor.
